Using built-in random variable [Uni] from uniform continuous distribution over [0; 1] interval we sample two numbers (x,y) then check if point is inside the circle. Operation is repeated n-times, then proportion falling into circle is being measured. This is only 1/4 of the circle (positive x and positive y) with radius 1, so 4 times proportion should give estimation of pi.
